Hall of mirrors

 


This hall of mirrors,

this passage of fear.

Distorted twisted visions,

grotesque sounds I hear.

In the corners of my eyes,

my face pulled and stretched.

In my eyes fear stays etched.

 

My leering face looms

dripping through

the shadows in the gloom,

like my painter had the shakes.

I'm blurred into contorted shapes,

deformed beyond recognition,

just a creepy composition.

 

I panic, trying to flee,

but the reflections follow me,

In every crooked alley, they peer out.

They don't shout.

They just sneer

through smeared warped lips.

Gurgled laughter reflects

the echoed soundtrack of regrets.

The facade starts to slip,

walls painted red, not with blood drips.

The last mirror not distorted

just shows me,

not a monster to be feared.

Along the pathway I'm led,

the exit lay just ahead.

 

This hall of mirrors, nothing is real,

everything has been shaped, moulded.

The real me concealed.

I've become scared

of my own reflection,

the manifestation

was bent out of shape.

The creator of these mirrors

trying to distort my true face

into a monstrous state.
